After evolution, every creature, without exception, received its Beyond. It was a unique power, the nature of which no one knew.
When Wain evolved, he received his Beyond just like the others. But he didn't know how to use the power that lurked deep in his mind.
Until that moment, Wain had only once seen the manifestation of Beyond another creature. It was just recently when he was in the lava fields and fought with Imp Leader.
Now the same thing was happening to Luar. Wain did not attack. He was confident that he would win even if Luar attacked him using the full force of his Beyond. After all, in Wain's opinion, Luar was slightly weaker than the Imp Leader.
'This is Beyond... Perhaps now I can learn more about my power. I mustn't miss a single detail.' Wain thought, staring intently at the golden lion above Luar's body.
Then the golden lion looked at Luar's wounded body and turned into hundreds of splinters that flew into the wide wound in his chest. The deep cut glowed brightly and began to gradually heal.
The closer Luar got to his complete healing, the paler the light in his eyes became. Gradually his body recovered completely. It looked like real magic and the miraculous healing of a mortal wound from the outside.
Moreover, it could even be called a true resurrection, considering that Luar had let out his last breath less than a minute ago.
'Luar is unconscious, which means that he is not directly controlling this process. Something else caused the awakening of Beyond. Could it be death? No, that's some nonsense. Most likely, the cause is something else, though each person may have their own unique conditions.' Wain thought as he watched Luar gradually heal.
After a while, the golden glow disappeared, and Luar was completely healed. It was a true miracle, but it was exactly the kind of opportunity that Beyond provided.
Wain did not attack. He was curious to see what would happen next. He also wanted to know how Luar was feeling at the moment.
Any information was good for him because he would take a big step forward when Wain could use his Beyond.
After about one minute, Luar opened his eyes and struggled to his feet. He didn't feel bad. On the contrary, he felt excellent. However, he was stunned and amazed at what had happened.
"What was that...?" Luar muttered puzzledly and looked at Wain. At that moment, he had forgotten entirely that they were fighting to the death a point ago. He couldn't think of anything else but the golden lion and his healing.
Wain shrugged and said, "A miracle. What do you feel now?"
"Power, boundless strength, and unwavering confidence. That kind of power, it's something new and amazing." Said Luar.
'Judging by his shocked and satisfied expression, Luar doesn't know how he was able to unleash this power. I see. It seems that releasing the power of Beyond will be much harder than I had imagined.' Wain thought, and his aura began to slowly intensify.
He was ready for another battle. Wain didn't mind fighting the man who could unleash his Beyond. In Wain's opinion, it would be a great experience to help him move forward.
However, Luar's aura did not begin to intensify. This seemed strange to Wain. Moreover, Luar was not wary. He had a relaxed expression on his face as if he were on a morning walk.
"Is there any point in the second round?" Luar said smiling.
"Hmm? Don't you think we have a reason to fight? I already killed you once and have no problem doing it again." Wain said coldly.
Luar shrugged, "I don't doubt that. But I realized during our fight that you didn't come here to fight me. You came here to fight the head of Black Pearl. That's a bit different. What's more, you're hungry for a good fight. There's no hatred or malice in you, at least not toward me."
Wain said nothing. He listened silently to Luar. He wondered how this conversation would develop.
"Look, at the moment, I no longer have a purpose in being the head of Black Pearl's. It's a total headache, and I'm wasting my time and potential here. I have to do what I want to do, which is to explore new things and get to unique places." Luar pronounced.
At that moment, Wain saw a real fire of interest burning in his eyes.
Luar was no longer interested in sitting in a comfortable chair and taking advantage of his position for various favors. An adventurous spirit had been awakened in him.
"Even if that doesn't change your mind, can't you do me a little favor?" Smiling, Luar said.
"What? Why should I help you in any way?"
"Weren't you the one who said you were grateful for this fight, and because of it, you were able to remember something important to you?"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAH, trying to use tricks like that to keep round two from happening? You're a bad negotiator, but I agree with you." Said Wain.
He sighed and continued, "Actually, you're right. Because you're no longer the head of the strongest organization in the north of the city, you were just a sparring partner to me."
"If you agreed, then I'm a good negotiator. What's more, I think that I could have gotten away from you by using everything I have. You're not a fool to chase me all over town." Pronounced Luar.
Wain nodded and said, "I can't understand something. Don't you want to get back at me for killing the girl downstairs?"
Wain would not let him live if Luar had hatred or enmity toward him. He could get into serious trouble in the future because of it.
If Wain did not get a satisfactory answer to his question, he would not hesitate to attack Luar.
"I'm sorry she died, but there are thousands of people dying every second now. There's nothing strange about that. Also, she wasn't some dear person to me that I would risk my life to avenge her." Said Luar.
"You're pretty selfish."
"No, I'm just honest. I value my life more than the lives of others. There's nothing strange about that. At least, unlike others, I can admit it to myself." Said Luar.
Wain nodded. He understood Luar's logic.
Luar nodded back and headed for the edge of the roof. He would jump over to another building and thus get away from this area and then from Overion.
'Imp Leader had the fire, and Luar had a golden lion. I wonder what affects what Beyond will look like? Is it possible that there was already hidden power within each creature, even before the apocalypse and the coming of the souls?' Wain pondered, looking out at the horizon.
'Alright, let's go.' Thought Luar and prepared to jump off, but suddenly something unimaginable happened.
Tremble.
"What...?" Shocked, Wain muttered, looking into the distance.
There he saw a colossal column of light piercing the clouds and even the sky. The power of that beam seemed limitless.
Anyone who saw this pillar could compare it to the black pillar that marked the beginning of the apocalypse.
But, to Wain, this pillar looked very special. After all, that was the color of the energy of the essence of the world.. He could not be wrong, for he had fought against the essence of the world on the Isle of the Damned.
